Given an algebroid plane curve $f=0$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p\geq 0$ we consider the Milnor number $\mu(f)$, the delta invariant $\delta(f)$ and the number $r(f)$ of its irreducible components. Put $\bar…

We prove that the preimage of a germ of a singular analytic hypersurface under a germ of a finite holomorphic map $g: (\mathbb{C}^n,0) \rightarrow (\mathbb{C}^n,0)$ is again singular. This provides a generalization of previous results of…

Given a germ of a smooth plane curve $(\{f(x,y)=0\},0)\subset (\mathbb K^2,0), \mathbb K=\mathbb R, \mathbb C$, with an isolated singularity, we define two invariants $I_f$ and $V_f\in \mathbb N\cup\{\infty\}$ which count the number of…

A monomial self-map $f$ on a complex toric variety is said to be $k$-stable if the action induced on the $2k$-cohomology is compatible with iteration. We show that under suitable conditions on the eigenvalues of the matrix of exponents of…

Let $f : X\to \Delta$ be a $1$-parameter family of $2$-dimensional isolated hypersurface singularities. In this paper, we show that if the Milnor number is constant, then any semistable model, obtained from $f$ after a sufficiently large…

Let $N$ be a Riemannian manifold and consider a stationary union of three or more $C^{1,\mu}$ hypersurfaces-with-boundary $M_k$ in $N$ with a common boundary $\Gamma$. We show that if $N$ is smooth, then $\Gamma$ is smooth and each $M_k$ is…

In this paper we give a formula for counting the number of isolated stable singularities of a stable perturbation of corank 1 germs $f:\C^n,0\to \C^p,0$ with $n<p$ that appear in the image $f(\C^n).$ We also define a set of ${\cal…

Let $(M, g)$, $(N, h)$ be compact Riemannian manifolds without boundary, and let $f$ be a smooth map from $M$ into $N$. We consider a covariant symmetric tensor $T_f$ $=$ ${\displaystyle f^*h - \frac{1}{m} |df|^2 g}$, where $f^*h$ denotes…

The rigidity of the positive mass theorem states that the only complete asymptotically flat manifold of nonnegative scalar curvature and zero mass is Euclidean space. We prove a corresponding stability theorem for spaces that can be…

Consider the (formal/analytic/algebraic) map-germs Maps(X,(k^p,o)). Let G be the group of right/contact/left-right transformations. I extend the following (classical) results from the real/complex-analytic case to the case of arbitrary…

Let $(\tilde{\Sigma},h_{ab},K_{ab})$ be an initial data set and let $x^a$ be a symmetry vector of $\tilde{\Sigma}$. Consider a MOTS $\mathcal{S}$ in $\tilde{\Sigma}$ and let the symmetry vector be decomposable along the unit normal to…

Given the germ of a smooth plane curve $(\{f(x,y)=0\},0)\subset (\mathbb{K}^2,0), \mathbb{K}=\mathbb{R}, \mathbb{C}$, with an isolated singularity, we define two invariants $I_f$ and $V_f \in \mathbb{N} \cup\{\infty\}$, which count the…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of spectral genus $\widetilde{p}_{g}$ of a germ of an isolated hypersurface singularity $(\mathbb{C}^{n+1}, 0) \to (\mathbb{C}, 0)$, defined as a sum of small exponents of monodromy eigenvalues. The…

We provide a counterexample to a conjecture of Hildebrand which states that if $\S$ has positive lower density and is stable i.e. for all $d$, $n$ is in $\mathcal{S}$ if and only if $dn$ is in $\mathcal{S}$ except on a set of density $0$…

The singular set of a generic map $f: M\to F$ of a manifold $M$ of dimension $m\ge 2$ to an oriented surface $F$ is a closed smooth curve $\Sigma(f)$. We study the parity of the number of components of $\Sigma(f)$. The image $f(\Sigma)$ of…

A 7-dimensional area-minimizing embedded hypersurface $M$ will in general have a discrete singular set. The same is true if $M$ is stable, or has bounded index, provided $H^6(sing M) = 0$. We show that if $M_i$ are a sequence of such…

We extend the circle of ideas from a previous paper on hypersurfaces to functions $f \colon (\mathbb C^n, 0) \to (\mathbb C^k, 0)$ with an isolated singularity in a stratified sense on an arbitrary, but fixed complex analytic germ $(X, 0)$.…

We prove that a (branched) minimal immersion from $\mathbb{C}$ to $\mathbb{R}^n$ is stable if and only if it lives in an even dimensional affine subspace and is holomorphic for some orthogonal complex structure on the subspace. More…

For a complex analytic map f from n-space to p-space with n<p and with an isolated instability at the origin, the disentanglement of f is a local stabilization of f that is analogous to the Milnor fibre for functions. For mono-germs it is…

We give two characterisations of when a map-germ admits a 1-parameter stable unfolding, one related to the $\mathscr K_e$-codimension and another related to the normal form of a versal unfolding. We then prove that there are infinitely many…
